(1) Crossed-out wheeled bin symbol

The crossed-out wheeled bin symbol (1)

indicates that a used battery should be col-

lected separately from ordinary household

trash.

By ensuring the used battery is disposed

of or recycled correctly, you will help pre-

vent potential negative consequences for

the environment and human health, which

could otherwise be caused by inappropri-

ate battery disposal. The recycling of

materials will help to conserve natural

resources. For more detailed information

about disposing of or recycling of the used

battery, consult your SUZUKI dealer.

Theft deterrent alarm system

(if equipped)

NOTE:

For the theft deterrent light of Australia,

Israel, Germany and Taiwan models, refer

to “Theft deterrent light” in this section.

A theft deterrent alarm system is armed in

about 20 seconds after you lock the doors.

(The system for EU specification vehicle,

however, is not armed when the engine

hood is open.)

Keyless push start system – Use the

remote controller or push the request

switch on driver’s door handle, front pas-

senger’s door handle or tailgate.

Keyless entry system – Use the transmit-

ter.

Once the system is armed, any attempt to

open a door by using any other means (*)

than the keyless push start system remote

controller, the request switch, the keyless

entry system transmitter or engine hood

(for EU specification vehicle) will cause the

alarm to be triggered.

* These means include the following:

–The key

– The lock knob on a door

– The power door locking switch

NOTE:

• The theft deterrent alarm system gener-

ates alarms when any of the predeter-

mined conditions is met. However, the

system does not have any function of

blocking unauthorized entry into your

vehicle.

• Always use the keyless push start sys-

tem remote controller, the request switch

or the keyless entry system transmitter

to unlock the doors when the theft deter-

rent alarm system has been armed.

Using a key instead will trigger the

alarm.

• If a person who does not know the theft

deterrent alarm system is going to drive

your vehicle, we recommend you explain

the system and its operation to the per-

son, or disable the system beforehand.

Mistakenly triggering the alarm may

cause a nuisance to others.

• Even if the theft deterrent alarm system

is armed, you should still be careful to

guard against theft. Do not leave money

or things of value in your vehicle.

• The theft deterrent alarm system is

maintenance-free.

NOTICE

Do not modify or remove the theft

deterrent alarm system. If modified or

removed, the system cannot be prop-

erly operated.

How to arm the theft deterrent alarm

system (when enabled)

Lock all doors (including the tailgate) using

the keyless push start system remote con-

troller, the request switch or the keyless

entry system transmitter. The theft deter-

rent light (1) will start blinking, and the theft

deterrent alarm system will be armed in

about 20 seconds.

While the system is being armed, the indi-

cator continues to blink at intervals of

approximately 2 seconds.

75RM313

NOTE:

• To prevent the alarm from being acci-

dentally triggered, avoid arming it while

anyone remains inside the vehicle. The

alarm will be triggered if any person

inside unlocks a door or engine hood (for

EU specification vehicle) by operating

the lock knob or power door locking

switch.

• The theft deterrent alarm system is not

armed when all doors are locked using

the key from outside, or using the door

lock knobs or the power door locking

switch from inside.

• If any door is not operated within approx-

imately 30 seconds after the doors have

been unlocked using the keyless push

start system remote controller, the

request switch or the keyless entry sys-

tem transmitter, the doors are automati-

cally locked again. After the doors are

locked, the theft deterrent alarm system

will be armed in about 20 seconds if the

system is in the enabled state.

How to disarm the theft deterrent alarm

system

Simply unlock the doors using the keyless

push start system remote controller, the

request switch or the keyless entry system

transmitter. The theft deterrent light will go

out, indicating that the theft deterrent alarm

system is disarmed.

How to stop the alarm

Should the alarm be triggered accidentally,

unlock the doors using the keyless push

start system remote controller, the request

switch or the keyless entry system trans-

mitter, or press the engine switch to

change the ignition mode to ON or turn the

ignition switch to “ON” position. The alarm

will then stop.

NOTE:

• Even after the alarm has stopped, if you

lock the doors using the keyless push

start system remote controller, the

request switch or the keyless entry sys-

tem transmitter, the theft deterrent alarm

system will be rearmed with a delay of

about 20 seconds.

• If you disconnect the lead-acid battery

while the theft deterrent alarm system is

in the armed condition or the alarm is

actually in operation, the alarm will be

triggered or re-triggered when the bat-

tery is then reconnected, although, in the

latter case, the alarm remains stopped

for the period between disconnection

and reconnection of the lead-acid bat-

tery.

• Even after the alarm has stopped at the

end of the predetermined operation time,

it will be triggered again if any door or

engine hood (for EU specification vehi-

cle) is opened without disarming the

theft deterrent alarm system.

Checking whether the alarm has been

triggered during parking

If the alarm was triggered due to an unau-

thorized entry into the vehicle and you then

press the engine switch to change the igni-

tion mode to ON or turn the ignition switch

to “ON” position, the theft deterrent light

will blink rapidly for about 8 seconds and a

buzzer will beep 4 times during this period.

If this happens, check whether your vehi-

cle has been broken into while you were

away from it.

Enabling and disabling the theft deter-

rent alarm system

The theft deterrent alarm system can be

either enabled or disabled.

When enabled (factory setting)

When the system is enabled, it causes the

hazard warning lights to flash for about 40

seconds if any of the alarm trigger condi-

tions is met. The system also causes the

interior buzzer to beep intermittently for

about 10 seconds, which is followed by

intermittent sounding of the horn for about

30 seconds.

The theft deterrent light continues to blink

during this time.

When disabled

When the system is disabled, it stays dis-

armed even if you perform any system

arming operation.

How to switch the state of the theft

deterrent alarm system

(Except EU specification vehicle)

You can switch the theft deterrent alarm

system from the enabled state to the dis-

abled state, and vice versa, using the fol-

lowing method.

NOTE:

For EU specification vehicle, the theft

deterrent alarm system cannot be switched

to the disabled state.

the end of the procedure as follows.

NOTE:

• You cannot disable the theft deterrent

alarm system while it is in the armed

condition.

• If you fail to complete the operations in

Step 2) and 3) within 15 seconds, per-

form the procedure again from the

beginning.

• Check that all doors are closed when

performing the above procedure.

NOTE:

You can also switch the theft deterrent

alarm system from the enabled state to the

disabled state, and vice versa, via the

information display setting mode. For

details on how to use the information dis-

play, refer to “Information display” in this

section.
